Orbit - The Cast of Doctor Who

Bluewater Comics have announced a new bio-comic, Orbit: The Cast of Doctor Who, which is to be published from January 2012.

The comic has been written by Paul Salamoff, with artwork from Jaime Martinez Rodriguez, Scott Boyce and DJ Burgess; covers have been created by DC Comics artist Joe Phillips.

There will be two versions of the comic which features all eleven television incarnations of the Doctor, a single issue form and a combined graphic novel which will also feature a bio on the movie Doctor as played by Peter Cushing.

Darren Davis, president of Bluewater Comics, said:

At Bluewater Comics we felt that a show like Doctor Who needed to have a bio-comic done. There were so many fine actors who played the role of the time traveler, we just wanted to highlight the careers of a handful of the actors.

Writer Paul Salamoff said:

I have been obsessed with Doctor Who for as long as I can remember. My office is literally filled with Doctor Who Toys, Books, DVD's and Daleks. Lots of Daleks! I find that the possibilities with the character are endless and the stories touch on every aspect of science fiction that I love.
